This past October I made a trip to Wuyishan and bought a fair amount of tea, which in the past few months has been almost completely consumed. It was clearly time to order more.
I have been meeting lots of nice tea people online, and some of us got together to make a group purchase. The Yancha on the counter here is about 12 kilograms of Beidou #1 and Laocong Shuixian. The roast is pretty heavy at the moment, but ought to relax nicely in the next month. All told, the roasting at this tea factory is pretty good, but there was a sample of Shuijingui which got burned. I recommend over roasting a small portion of stale tea to anyone who has never done it, because I can't describe the flavour and even if its slight, it never goes away and its very different from a heavy roast.

Thanks very much for your comment, T.alain. I am going to delete it because it has your email address in it, and there are programs scanning the internet which will get your address and send you spam. Hope you don't mind.
Are you taking applications for your tea club? I would be interested in getting some of those teas.
I haven't been buying much tea since this event. I am saving all of my money to go on a tea rampage this July. I ought to be completely broke by August.
